I added a discussion forum and documentation site for b2++. Both are quite empty right now, but you can post to the forum if you have any queries or comments about b2++, and if you’d like to contribute to the documentation feel free to email me and I’ll setup an account for you to edit pages in the Wiki.
The documentation is handled by WakkaWiki but I’ve limited editing by requiring a username/password.
The forum is running a stock version of phpBB.

Good story Mark! hehe
So in his stage managed moment of triumph, the idiot still couldn’t get it right and according to the link above, the same goes for what has become a lawless post-war Iraq, which is quickly descending into anarchy.
